      Decent benefits, but frustrating compensation and management issues

      Sr retirement consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1) the benefits and PTO are decent 2) working from can be considered a benefit 3) I enjoy the work and the clients.

      Cons

      1) income is capped and they use metrics designed to prevent consultants from maximizing payout. 2) the compensation plan has changed 4 times in 2 years….this year alone I am on my 3rd compensation plan. 3) lack of growth both in income and career 4) Management is useless. They over promise and under deliver. I am a 14yr professional and my income is lower now then any point in my recent career. Please note, I am a Top Producer and currently lead my team in monthly production. So I am not some inexperienced lazy salesperson, I am a under-compensated producer and closer.

      Remote work is great, but team culture can stifling

      Senior fund accountant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Completely remote work, day-to-day responsibilities don't change much year over year.

      Cons

      Things like pay increases and promotions take forever but changes to policies can come down at the drop of a hat. Your managers really determine the quality of life you have here.
